I would like to take a moment to thank Dr. Nelson and her friendly staff for their professionalism. ... They all took their time and explained to me in a way I could understand, never made me feel like a number or a sale, which is refreshing in this day and time. At the last optometrist I visited, I had a negative experience; I felt like a number or a sale, which was the opposite of what I experienced at Dripping Springs Vision Center. As a result, I was very apprehensive about going to the Dripping Springs Vision Center or any Other Vision Center. I am positive it was the prayer I said before choosing an Eye Doctor, because there are so many to choose from. The summary is that I highly recommend Dr. Nelson and the Dripping Springs Vision Center staff because she evaluated my eyes and corrected my vision, thinking outside the box based on her experience. After the visit, I walked around saying Wow, I can see. Thank you Sincerely Mike Finley
